Style Icons: Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen in White Christmas

Yesterday my friend and I sat down for our annual viewing of White Christmas. The conversation has stayed the same since we first watched it on the ten inch TV in our cinder block dorm room. Look at how tiny Vera Ellen’s waist is! I wish they still sold 50s swing dresses. Seriously, the inside of her thighs are hollow! I wonder if I can find a knock off of Rosemary Clooney’s black gown on Ebay? Here are some screen shots for those who just want to gape at the fashion without the musical numbers. [ITPGallery]
